See how different plants that grow in Toronto (AgCanada hardiness zone 6; USDA zone 5) look all year round and at different stages in their life cycles.

Malva neglecta

Malva neglecta, known in English as "common mallow", "buttonweed", "cheeseplant", "cheeseweed", "dwarf mallow" or "roundleaf mallow", and in French as "mauve à feuilles rondes", is native to Eurasia and north Africa.
I photographed this plant in a vacant lot on Elm west of Bay.
